SOF MISSIONS HOSTS 9TH ANNUAL GALA TO IGNITE HOPE AND HONOR OUR NATION’S HEROES
EMERALD COAST, Fla. (July 16, 2025) – Shield of Faith (SOF) Missions is proud to announce the 9th Annual Emerald Coast Gala, returning to the prestigious Destin-Fort Walton Beach Convention Center on September 13, 2025. This year’s theme, Military Code: RED, represents our steadfast commitment to Resilience, Empowerment, and Determination in support of our Nation’s warriors.
With a striking red theme and formal flair, the evening promises a powerful blend of elegance, celebration, and purpose. Guests will enjoy live entertainment by Thin Ice, an electrifying rock band that is sure to light up the night. The culinary team at the Convention Center will deliver an unforgettable red-themed dining experience showcasing their exceptional talent and creativity.
SOF Missions remains dedicated to its mission of combating the tragic epidemic of suicide among our warriors, including active-duty service members, Veterans, and first responders. To date, the organization has provided more than $10.1 million in support to over 3,500 warriors nationwide through the Be Resilient Clinics and local Warrior Retreats held at EXOS at Andrews Institute, delivering comprehensive, no-cost care to those who need it most.
The gala will feature an inspiring keynote address from a distinguished warrior guest speaker, alongside exciting live and silent auctions, signature drinks, and opportunities to connect with others who are passionate about honoring and supporting our heroes.
All proceeds from the event will directly benefit the warriors who need it most, ensuring they receive personalized care regardless of their financial circumstances.
This is more than a gala. It is a statement. It is a celebration. It is a night to stand united in RED and boldly declare that our Warriors matter.
Whether you are a longtime supporter or new to the SOF Missions community, you are invited to join us for one of the most impactful and meaningful fundraising events on the Emerald Coast. Sponsorship opportunities are also available for individuals and businesses who want to make an even greater impact.
